Post Op Complications

I had 1st surgery (gastric bypass) on Wednesday July 25th. Felt better than I ever felt and went home early on the 26th. Woke up on the 27th vomiting blood. Took 3 hrs to get back to hospital and back to my surgeon. Bowel had flipped at the "Y" connection and caused a bowel obstruction. Went back to surgery for repair. Morning after 2nd surgery was doing a little better but then it went downhill from there. By that evening was still vomiting and in a lot of pain only to find out that the bowels had flipped again. Back to the OR for the 3rd surgery in 4 days. They opened this time to find out the connection wasn't long enough. Every time I would stand up to walk it would pull the connection and cause it to flip. I'm still in hospital waiting for my small bowels to repair and start working again. I keep telling my self it's got to get better than this. I've had nothing but ice chips for 9 days now. Has anyone else experienced this?

Well it looks like I may be headed back to the hospital for the next round. I got home Sunday after the 3rd surgery, and last night I started passing blood, had abdominal pain, and nausea. Probably doing scopes to see if I'm bleeding somewhere. I dont know that I can keep doing this, spirits are very low.

Said a prayer for you. Hope youre doing better.

Ohhh nowww again sorry about that but I hope this time is the last time you're in the hospital and find what is happening to you. All the best wishes are with you
